What did Chairman Kevin Warsh say about politics influencing the rate decision?

Warsh told reporters that politics played no role in the Fed’s choice to leave rates unchanged and said he felt honoured to lead the policymakers. His comment was presented as a clear rejection of any partisan influence.
